TLDR: Good spot for solid Mexican eats in a pinch.
Solid restaurant, a bit hard times to get attention of servers, but generally good place to grab standard Mexican food (with some twists) and drinks when in a pinch. I’m a fan of the ordering system.

Unfortunately the only good thing is the atmosphere. Tacos lack of flavor and bad service

2 stars today. Went with 2 friends for lunch.
Service: Waited 10 mins until a wait staff approached and another 10 minutes to order only after flagging down another. Server added an unordered item, when we told the server (different vs one taking the order since we can’t find the original) we didn’t order it, he looked at the tablet and said “yes, you did.” 🙄. Overcharged us (billed us ala carte for the 2 tacos + rice/bean lunch specials).
Food: Al pastor and crispy fish tacos were under seasoned and overloaded with veg toppings. The tortilla fell apart when I picked up the second taco. Sauces were weak and watered down.
Decor was nice though.
We won’t want to risk another bad experience, at least not at the fidi Tacombi.

I definitely would not return here based on my experience. And I am flabbergasted at the 5 star reviews this place has. The food was bland, in my opinion, and dry. I ordered a couple of the tacos. I ordered a baja fish taco and an al pastor taco - I only actually received the fish taco (I was thankful to not receive the second taco after tasting the first). I also ordered a Coke, which ended up being $5 (which is outrageous for a soda). The table ordered a couple of large guacamole and chips, which were not particularly large. The chips were quite thick - I felt like I could've chipped a tooth trying to bite into them. The table ordered churros for dessert - one order for $10. We figured we'd have enough for a table of 6. We got 3. Three churros. So we split them in half to share them. They were a good texture but had an unexpected orange flavor to them, which was not mentioned in the detailed description of the item on the menu.
The environment was pretty bare bones. The chairs were hard metal chairs that you might find at an outdoor event. The service was fine, though they brought everything out piecemeal, and I never received the al pastor taco.
So yes, given the price, food quality, environment, and service, I would certainly not return here. I thoroughly regret eating here given the amount I spent.

This is the best Tacombi location. The service was excellent both times I’ve been, that consistency goes a long way. I even sat at the same seat. 5/5 would do business with again. They have a great taco Tuesday deal.

I had the pork tacos. They were very tender and filled with flavor. Customer service was very good. The place itself had a very laid back casual atmosphere.

I love taco here and my favorite drink is watermelon!!! Recommend.
The waiter with a beard just shamed my friend for leaving a 10% tip. The level of entitlement..

I got the shrimp taco, and the chicken quesadilla, which was also really good — but the shrimp taco was definitely the MVP! The food came out super fast too, great service overall!

These tacos were delicious, I would probably say tastier than Los Tacos No.1! The margaritas went down a treat.
